with new toy christmas dart guns (because your never too old for toys)

and mama knit hats

and fun

oh so

much fun.

the last four days our home was filled again. kids and friends of kids in and out, 'see ya ma!' some of the things we've done in the past happening differently this year, maybe it's time for some new traditions now that my children are all grown up. it's hard to let go, i can see that even for the kids, but i keep telling them (and myself too) as long as we have each other, everything is okay ( ♥ ).

my sons are gone back to their own homes now, my youngest daughter (eldest couldn't make it) is waiting for jfk to reopen, so she can leave too. her flight tonight was cancelled, due to a severe snow storm on the east coast. and no, i did not wish for that. ;)

i hope everyone had a magical merry christmas and if i don't manage another post before friday, Happy New Year too!

Lori - What a gorgeous crew you have! You must be bustin' buttons. :)) I know EXACTLY what you mean about changing traditions, and having to let go. I'm sad, but happy. Mostly happy, because after all I got to see everyone (except one!) at Christmas. I'm so glad you NYC girl made it home.Happy New Year! xox Pam

Oh that is so lovely Lori! It really does look like so much fun! Your daughter is absolutley stunning!! and your boys look so much like thier dad, love the beanies too. Glad you had such a lovely christmas xx p.s I didnt knit my sons jumper, I am really not a talented knitter! But, I am lucky enough to have a mother in law who does a fab job, isnt the colour gorgeous with his red hair!?

Hi! Just been catching up.. I am so happy that Hannah arrived, and the boys, and I just love all your beautiful Christmas decorations, and wrappings and those tiny sweaters, and of course the knitted hats!!

Aw, this post warmed my heart! It's wonderful to have as many family members home for the holidays as possible, isn't it? The fuller the house, the fuller the heart - and each of your sons and your daughter look relaxed and like they are having a blast to be back at home.

Just as it should be. I'm glad you had a very wonderful Christmas - I hope you have a fantastic 2011!
